Land art and site specific sculpture - land art uses
the environment and its scale as its material. Concrete art is expressed in
material itself with which the artist introduces her non-representational objective.
Public art can be viewed and accessed by observers.

CITIES - sculptures and land art

Dordrecht

In 1990 the city of Dordrecht, in
Holland, bought a concrete sculpture which Lucien den Arend had installed for an
exhibition of the Dutch Sculptors' Association in the Amsterdam Stedelijk Museum in 1979.
The work was made in such a way that after the exhibition in the Stedelijk the concrete,
ten meter long, sculpture which had been cast in one piece could be divided into eight
congruent segments. Later it was shown at the Museum of Modern Art, De Rietgors, in
Papendrecht. It stayed there on loan to the museum. The title was Bilaterally
Convex Waves. The sculpture was made once more, using the same molds at the
Louise de Colligny School in Dordrecht. Lucien den Arend placed it in relation to the
existing round sand-pit on the playground. Its title was changed to sinwa
as the undulating form was actually a sine wave.
